After a highly successful run in Boston, we are delighted to announce that our fourth production, ‘Stories’, will be debuting in Chicago in May 2026!

Stories follows a young Jewish story writer/teller in 1898 Warsaw as he tries to devise a story that will intrigue a woman who he is definitely (he tells himself) not in love with. As he digs deep into his imagination to find such a story, we see the narratives lingering in his subconscious emerge and intermingle, including those from his own life; the story of his move to the city and estrangement from his parents, a Grimm Brothers-esque tale of a quest for a mythical princess, the Exodus narrative as told at the Passover seder, a Baal Shem Tov (Master of the Good name, a Jewish mystical teacher) wielding magic to protect a family from a blood libel accusation. Stories is ultimately concerned with the tales we tell ourselves to try to make sense of our lives, our pasts, and our hopes for the future, and what stands to be lost when we try to ignore them.
